With so many homes for sale in Colorado Springs, it is exciting when showings result in a contract offer on your home. Although receiving a contract is a step in the right direction, there is much neg
otiating and collaborating that takes place between the parties involved until the transaction finally closes.
In the present real estate market, it is not uncommon to see issues with buyer financing cause contracts to fall through. For this very reason, it is important sellers require buyers accompany their offer with a pre-qualification or pre-approval letter. Even then, a lender pre-qualification letter may not be enough to guarantee the buyers financing will not be of concern down the road. The listing agent needs to be in communication with the buyer’s lender throughout the transaction to ensure everything is on track.
